A rancher in the Nebraska Sandhills says this week’s blizzard will help bust the multi-year drought even though it brings challenges.
Frank Beel tells Brownfield since Monday his ranch has received more than a foot of snow. “Right now, we’re getting 30 to 40 mile-an-hour winds. The second round really came in last night around 5 o’clock where we got another 6-8 inches.”
He tells Brownfield the storm could put additional pressure on hay supplies this winter.
